How did she respond to letters from young women?  "It feels weird to talk about this," she says.  "There was always this delicate balance of wanting to be assertive but not be abrasive because you weren't really accepted if you were a woman and you were considered too aggressive.  I don't get the sense that younger women today have to worry about that as much as we did when I was coming up.  That's a really good thing."
During the Women's March she was shopping at a Whole Foods in DC when the store became overwhelmed with protesters.  "I just stood back against the frozen food and just watched these young women carrying signs.  They were so comfortable in their own skin, there were so comfortable that they had a view and there were expressing it and they weren't the least bit sheepish.  And I thought, this is great, this is how it's supposed to be.  So maybe we're in a time when women are finding their voice." 

Hannah Gluckstein, Painter (1895-1978)

Gluck was born into a wealthy Jewish family in London. Gluck attended St. John's Wood School of Art between 1913 and 1916 before moving to west Cornwall and joining the artists' colony there.  In the 1920s and 30s Gluck became known for portraits and floral paintings. Gluck insisted on being known only as Gluck, "no prefix, suffix, or quotes", and when an art society of which she was vice president identified Gluck as "Miss Gluck" on its letterhead, Gluck resigned. Gluck identified with no artistic school or movement and showed her work only in solo exhibitions, where it was displayed in a special frame Gluck invented and patented. This Gluck-frame rose from the wall in three tiers; painted or papered to match the wall on which it hung, it made the artist's paintings look like part of the architecture of the room.  This self-portrait is an accurate representation of her looks.
